Never thought of that... with 400 printers, that would be tough!!! -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, January 23, 2004 3:41 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: OT - printer setups I like DHCP reservations mainly because I can change a default gateway (you know, every other week because it's fun) and not have any hassles from the printers. I do the same for most of my servers in case of DNS or gateway changes.

I would choose static IP because it is overall a bit less traffic to deal with. I think from a performance standpoint overall, static IP is the way to go. Just make sure it's clearly documented. I don't know of any documentation contrasting those... but that's my opinion. -----Original Message----- From: Adam.Baum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:Adam.Baum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, January 23, 2004 2:58 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] OT - printer setups We are going to resegment our network. One group of the project wants to use DHCP for printers and set them to a "Permanent" lease. Others want static IP. Can anyone point me to some documentation which discusses the merits of both in a medium sized environment. We have about 400 printers on our network. adam ******************************************************** This Week's Sponsor - Emergent Online 99Point9.com EOL THINssentials(tm) Bring You TRUE Universal Printing Solutions and Time Zone Support.
